The original hints of light fruit and alcohol warmth from the base beer are replaced
by darker fruit, bourbon and oak character.
REAL ALE TENT
Imperial Oatmeal Stout (Oatmeal Stout):ABV – 8.02% , IBU - 54.2, SRM
– 37.0. An Imperial Oatmeal Stout made with a plethora of English dark malts and
flaked oats and generous quantities of East Kent Golding hops. This beer was brewed
to replace the Barleywine in our Bourbon barrels, but we thought it would be a
great treat to get some in Firkins for the beer engine! English ESB yeast was used to
ferment this malty wonder.

immediately captivating you with a bold, hop forward taste and a pleasant bitterness
that lingers in the finish.

papaya. If you’re seeking a refreshing, hoppy drink, seek no further.

showcases the rare Nelson Sauvin hop from New Zealand. Delightfully confusing

Established 1996. After living in France , brothers Jim and Jason Ebel developed
a passion for flavorful specialty beer. After returning to the states, they
had trouble finding that type of beer in Chicago so they opened Two Brothers
Brewing Company in 1996. To get them started, the Ebel brothers’ grandfather, a
retired dairy farmer, donated his bulk milk tanks, which were quickly converted
to fermenters. In addition to our traditional style beers, we have some of the
coolest, most kick ass brewers and awesomest and best looking salespeople
ever ! We have some of the most delicious and mouth wateringly fabuloso beers
on the planet Earth ! If people come visit the Two Brothers Brewery or Two
Brothers Roundhouse we will make all their dreams come true.
Domaine DuPage: Inspired by the brothers time living in France , this food-friendly
ale is deep amber in color, with a toasty and sweet caramel start. It finishes with just
enough hops to clean off the palate. Bon Appetite!
Prairie Path Ale: a complex malt character that is paired with Saaz and Golding
hops that create a mildly bitter finish. The result is a crisp, drinkable, savory ale that
is light in color, but not in flavor.
Atom Smasher: A hefty, full-bodied lager like the marzens of old, but aged in our
foudres for complexity unmatched by the imported Oktoberfest beers of today. Just
add Lederhosen.
Outlaw: As bold as the name suggests but as friendly as the masked man, comes
our first adventure into the world of cans. This IPA is full of citrus and pine hop
character and aroma. The hop flavors play off the pleasant malt complexity like a
good sidekick. Giddy-up.
Pahoehoe: ahoehoe was originally inspired by a trip to Hawaii to participate in the
2011 Kona Beer Festival on the Big Island . This beer is named after a type of lava flow
found at the Kilauea Volcano. This light colored ale uses coconut water and coconut
milk in the brewing process and fresh toasted coconut meat in the fermenter. It was
produced one time and has been requested regularly ever since then.

young and old for generations... to laugh, to play, to frolic, to just escape stresses of
life for a time. Three Beaches Honey Blonde is like a day at the beach... light, bleached
blonde, gleefully effervescent, free from bitterness and sure to improve your attitude.

This beer is intensely bitter with a mighty hop flavor and aroma.* Lest we forget Aunt

into a hitching post and saying. “Excuse me Mr. Dodge!” It was said that she was an
